It's a pity you want to leave the list. But yes, of course, you can
remove yourself from the list. Once you've subscribed, you received a
welcome message with relevant informations.
An option is to send an empty email
to: address@hidden
with subject: unsubscribe
Then, you have to reply to a confirmation email.
Regards,
Andrey
P.S. Please, choose "reply all" when you're answering mails from a mailing list
